LazyTrailRider Posted January 15, 2023 Share I love my eBike, but derestriction to enable motorbike speeds is not cool. Not cool at all. ChrisF, Zebra, Chadvdw67 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ouzo Posted February 2, 2023 Share I cant find the original thread where this was initially reported, but 1 year on and this article (even though a bit on the sensational side) does ask some questions regarding e-bikes. Granted is American, and common sense isnt all that common over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebob Posted April 6, 2023 Share After a couple incidents at Wolwespruit I can categorically say this has nothing to do with whether the machine involved is a bike or an e-bike, but rather whether the person on top is a twat or not Tatt, Louzy and ChrisF 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brakepad Posted October 15 Share digging this out again, Aspen in Colorado (US) has banned ebikes on their trail network. They say ebikes are too fast, dangerous and too many....

Slight incline and I know it has been de-restricted. I think they did a +-40km out and back ride. ChrisF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
